Sorry for the late reply, I was away for business.

(waiting 40 minutes for my project to build, so lets do some ranting).

In all honestly - I am disappointed! I prepared several paths (which I had to redo several times because the dev screwed things up) but outside of some sex/kissing with the other females in game - they mean utter shit - there is no (story) progress.

One of the paths that I really want is daughter + Elena (and possible Margo, she is HOT). REALLY hyped for it! I remember them messing around w/ kissing and some action on bed and in the shower. Then it took I don't know how many months before we had some fingering in the shower (I believe that was chapter 2) - that's it. No remarks, no fooling around - nothing. It is like it never happened, which pisses me off!

For this to work we need more updates. I get that. It is really hard to do progress in any path when there is 3 months between each update. The thing that bothers me the most is the fact that after 3 months you end up with an update, that feels like less than a months work. Time wise IT IS a months work, but there has to be ways to introduce more content. Get a 2nd or 3rd render machine for all I care! The story must be already written, right? Currently I pay 60$ for less than 1 - 2 hours of content. Matter of fact, I went through my billings and if I add all Patreon funds up - I payed just under the 400$ for my DMD experience. Does it justify the costs? No, definitely not. I do it to support him, but like I said - his way of doings aren't evolving. He is stuck in the past.

Story wise: there are so many possible paths in game that playing them all out is going to take them years - which in they end sucks for the people paying. Lets say it takes 4 years to be able to do a threesome with Elena and daughter. This will cost me 960$ (4*12*20) - that is A LOT of money for something so simple. What about the harem? You really think we can do a harem with: daughter, Elena, Georgina, Jennifer before 2020? What about the Chinese photographer, Margo and maybe Rachel? Think about it - I am starting to believe that introducing all these characters and paths that it killed DMD in the long run.

What about Melody: well, I play it too but I feel nothing for her. The only way I put up with her is the DMD-connection. I couldn't care less about her.

In the last episode something happened, and it could go into blackmailing (which I hope for) or more interaction between the three, but if he doesn't deal with it immediately then I am out. I don't want to spend 1.5 hours riding horses and acting like nothing happened and then have 3 lines at the end saying "I know you are fucking your dad", "What?? HOW??", "I mean, no I am not".

I guess ... you are right. I'm not supporter of MrD at Patreon anymore, but pay even more at bmac each month.
And what we get for a lot of money is ... really too little.
One can say "Better little than nothing" ... but since it's inofficially announced that there won't be ch3 and a lot of content we're waiting (and paying) for never will coming out, it's even harder to keep motivated to stay with the game and MrD :|

Oh, and I hoped very much for a reunion with Olivia (what a beauty :heartcoveredeyes: ).
I guess writing to MrD would be a thing many of us should do to convince him to do more work for DMD:FeelsGoodMan:

I decided to skim through the game in the run-up to the release. Played a little through the fun bits of Ch1, then opened Ch2. A bunch of my saves vanished. They were there a few weeks ago. Is there any issue with playing Ch1 interfering with save files from Ch2? It's the only thing I can think of.

Just for laughs, I updated the v18 URL and got something rather unexpected:

(no, this wasn't officially posted, but the fact it exists makes me wonder if it was an early placeholder started awhile back)

One option for you might be to change your Patreon commitment to $20 every third month, with $5 or some other combo in between. I know that some patrons at least spoke of doing that.

As for the Olivia/Margo character creep, both these characters werenot intended as sexual partners, but became so as patrons became excited about each new female character. (Even that cafe scene with D/MC/Olivia and Olivia’s Dad was due to patron interest in Olivia/Dad).

As for the delay between D/Elena moments with no talking about it between, I agree. It is a weakness in that you’d expect at least D to have some thoughts about her and Elena (at least “well, she’s been poking at me all the time I’ve known her, so what’s new”).

I too would like to see DMD have faster output. Iiwu, I would pm MDots and Hearsz as I don’t think the 2/1 release schedule will change, but there is always discussions about how to juggle the two projects.

(I hear your frustration on creating path saves that don’t pan out. Me, being a fan of the drama and angst of NTR and netorase, have paths for even a “pizza boy/no pizza boy” route. Poor pizza boy. He never got nuthin.)

Sorry to hear your motivation dropped after my posting. All I can say is the transition between Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 did not go smoothly and the headache is something that MDots does not want to repeat.

That being said, a series of post Chapter 2 releases might do the same as a Chapter 3 release without the coding headache. (And shucking off the “game day per release” format which I think hampers the exploration of some of the threads — as I just don’t see how D gets to a full polyamorous open marriage with impregnation and a mfm moment as well by then end of a Chapter 3 at “day per release” pace).

But with special releases you could explore:

(1) D’s honeymoon (as I expect we will have a wedding ... at least I’m pushing the heck for it ... in Ch2 ... if you recall I pushed like heck for the D orgasm before Ch1 closed.);

(2) D’s modeling career to include traveling to exotic locations;

(3) D’s new family (to include all 4 main female characters and MC living in the same household);

(4) D’s college;

(5) D’s other kinks;

(6) and D’s pregnancy (and everyone else’s)

As you can see, you get six more releases from this hypothetical (and maybe 12 if each is a double release.). And each release covers weeks-months-years as is appropriate.

D having a modeling career would be a very very dangerous thing to do if they got married.
If they got married, and she became a famous model, there would always be a chance that some news agency would get a picture of her husband, and if the evil ex saw it, she could destroy them both.
